..TO WORK IS TO LEARN TOO LIKE IN SCHOOL..
..this would be the first drama series where I watch Mano Erina...
..anyway, I don't know but I think, I like this series if they focus on the world of working at all..
.
..it's a turn down for me for putting some scenes which are not needed - like the mystery of having closing of some establishment and the detective part of lost children..
.
..I would better to see the FL's struggle on work, on how she will overcome it and what she learnt after that..
.
..but here in different work she entered, I saw some important part that needed to enjoy your position not to survive - because we live to work and not work to live..
.
..to learn to your superior, well for what is good after all, take the challenge for the task you get not to challenge the other people, not to put full of your emotion on work that may affected the flow..
.
..and sometimes, it always get to your guts to prove and believe on your skills..
.
..well, it's a so-so for me, I just want to see Erina-chan..

Short, but sweet & intriguing!
**This review may contain spoilers**A bit odd and confusing at times, sprinkled with fantasy-mystery like elements, but intriguing. Free for interpretation, but I liked the context of "self-discovery" through work. The main character was burnt out after giving her all in her teaching job, losing her passion for it. A fairy god mother listened, helped and taught her the values of self-respect & courage through work. Making her do small, yet meaningful jobs. She thought she was helping others, but in fact she was helping herself.
There was no major plot twist, quite self-explanatory in fact. The acting was so-so, nothing impressive, but well delivered story and simple characters. The thing that stuck out for me was the scenery/filming location and creative photography directing. You'd have scenery and sounds of the harbour, some random frames of the friendly neighbourhood cats, the elderly people just strolling by, the small community of people helping each other and keeping the children safe on the streets. The most mesmerising location/scenery is actually inside the "Canary Bus". I suppose they did not have automated buses in such small rural towns, but it was quite interesting to see this kind of public transportation and the uses of it for the community.
A small bite sized refreshing one when you're not looking for anything in particular.
